�Okay, I�ll arrange a meeting for the both of you then�� Eloise felt it was best that she let Jovan meet Renee for a while before the surgery to erase any suspicions.

�I�ll ask her to come to the manor at ten o�clock tomorrow morning so the both of you can talk.�

�You�ve done well, Elly.� It was the first time Jovan praised Eloise openly. He turned his face towards the sky and took in a deep breath, feeling like freedom was already in his grasp. �I�ll be able to see the moon in a few days.�

Eloise pushed Jovan back to his room and waited for him to fall asleep, then went to the basement again.

Renee was still paralyzed from the waist down, but remained calm. She looked as if she was patiently waiting for the surgery.

�I�ve just spoken to Mr. Hunt, and he�s agreed to undergo the surgery in three days. However, I� didn�t tell him that you�re the donor,� Eloise explained to Renee.

Renee opened her eyes and looked up at the white ceiling, smiling bitterly. �Of course, you can�t tell him. He won�t say yes if he knows it�s me. After all, he only agreed to give up his sight for my sake.�

�You�re right. You�ll just be returning Mr. Hunt�s favor. As for the rest, it�s between you and Stefan. He should be held responsible for you since he owes you a pair of eyes,� Eloise said rather sharply. Although she was surprised by Renee�s consent, she hadn�t forgiven her entirely. After all, it was Renee who had put Jovan in this position in the first place.

�I don�t need anyone to be held responsible for me because I caused it. I�ll be responsible for myself.� Renee had never thought of asking Stefan for help after giving up her eyes.

In fact, she had already studied Braille in case she ever needed to return Jovan�s favor one day. She had been through many hardships, so even if she lost her sight, she knew she would still make a name for herself.

�You�re quite a rational person. No wonder Mr. Hunt is so obsessed with you.� Eloise stared at Renee curiously, feeling that she was quite an exceptional person. Many people would have gone crazy at the thought of losing their sight, and they would surely try to run away, but it seemed like Renee had accepted her fate and would take charge of her life nonetheless.

�With all this bad luck I have, I have no choice but to be optimistic,� Renee smiled and said calmly.

Eloise felt her suspicions fade, and told Renee, �Mr. Hunt wants to meet the donor and talk to her. I already set the time for tomorrow morning, so could you� pretend to be a poor female student?� Eloise could always get a female student to act, but she felt that it would be a great regret if they didn�t meet.

�Sure.� Renee was looking forward to it. �I�ll lose my sight in three days; I won�t have any regrets if I get to see the outside world before then.�

Pity engulfed Eloise when she saw how despondent Renee was.

�Listen, I don�t want to do this either but the problem is there aren�t any suitable eyes for Mr. Hunt except yours. It�s our only option.�

"Don�t worry about it. I told you that it�s what I owe to Jovan, and I�m willing to return the favor.�

�Fine, you both will meet tomorrow morning then,� Eloise said and breathed out a weary sigh.

Renee had a restless night, her mind plagued with worries, and on the other side of Beach City, the same thing was happening to Stefan.

Xavier had told Stefan that he couldn�t get through to Renee�s phone, so Stefan had tried calling Renee too. When he couldn�t reach her either, uneasiness filled him. However, he soon saw her Facebook status-a photo of her holding sunflowers and smiling tenderly with the caption �You�re the only one I love�. JrNovels.com
